Marty,
Because I travel to get to my PM's office I've learned to check all scripts before I leave and then because WC pays for my back related scripts but not my neck/migraine I check scripts there at the pharmacy.

I don't count the pills but I make sure what was ordered is what I receive.

In the good old days when I worked as a nurse we had to prepare many medicines and account for all of them before everything went unit dose.

I don't even know what system is utilized now but one thing I know is as you stated there are plenty of mistakes made so as best one can check your scripts before leaving your doc's office and your meds before leaving the pharmacy.

BTW, did the increase in Neurontin help you out significantly??
